i am not a fan of transsion but i gotta say, they really stepped up

sunshineV:
helio g90 not g90t... thats fvcking expensive. waste of money

Still not bad for an 8gb ram phone

Finally, they are stepping up their game, nice one

is it the galaxy j7 used?
if u use better samsung u won't call it just a brand

u probably disabled google play services.

Go to settings then scroll down look for apps and select

Go to all apps option, search for google play services and enable it, after that update it and u are back to normal

pabllov53:
I weak, i don't think they have held and felt A51 at all. Samsung's best selling mid range fone. A fone that broke their record to the extent they had no option but to gv their users a 3yrs update too. Do they even know how many units of A51 that was sold and still selling. That fone is love at first site. Pure love. So light in weight. Beautiful aesthetic exterior design, bad camera, more clear than the m31 that comes with 64mp ooo.. Nah this boys should shift with thier heavy shapeless nonsense abeg

Chinko fans dem, na money dey make some of them yan okpata, most of them will choose A51 when given a chance to choose one of the two

pabllov53:
A51 design alone is a killer.. Can't and should never be compared to the shapeless infinix looking mi 9t and old version design of mi note 10 lite. These xiaomi ppl nor dey gree. I used xiaomi fam. Fone at times closes my app. A51 does everything, i tire for this boys.. One is comparing the stock camera of A51 to RN9s my goodness

No mind them, they be defending chinko crap blindly just becos of fanboism

RealEzee:
someone who will choose a brand logo over productivity only does it out of choice, in some cases out of ignorance obviously.

we have done extensive comparison, alot has been said where both phones are at par and where both phones out class each other with the note9s topping most of it from chipset to build quality, battery, price etc, at the end its left to the buyer to make their choice, yet knowing in general ramifications the SD720g powered note9s outclass the exynos 9612 powered A51, at that note I sign out, Note9s tops the A51, whatever you think the A51 can do the note9s does it way better plus it cost less , aiit bud.

Nothing like brand logo, i will list the cons for u once more just incase u missed it

•Screen
•Camera
•Beauty/Design
•Less Weight
•Longer Updates
•Better UI
•Availability of spare parts ( Cant come and be ordering for spare parts online and having to wait for months before arival)
•Better and more trusted brand
•Better resale/ Market Value incase u decide to part ways with it.
•Less bloatwares.
•Better security patch ( Heard recently how chinese companies are selling phones with inbuilt malwares to steal from the users)
And lots more...


Now give me a list of note 9s pros other than Chipset

RealEzee:
I already answered most of this earlier bud, incase u skipped it, here is it and I gave my reasons - https://www.nairaland.com/6071942/samsung-galaxy-a51-samsung-galaxy/3

Resell value is no deal breaker bro, when it time to upgrade man will upgrade to another phone with or without selling the phone.

Better security patch? Did the news specify the brand it accuses of security breaks? Please list the Chinese phones accused of this bro?

"Not everyone is a gamer. Other than gaming experience and probably price, there is simply no good reason to choose RN9s over A51.

There is much more to phone than gaming" .- the total experience on any smartphone is determined by its engine(processor), true or false? If the engine is better the phone will give better user experience in all ramifications, so that been said the SD720g on the note9s will give a better user experience than the exynos 9611 on the A51 hands down, plus it cost less, so what's the extra that the A51 is offering that I should buy it over the better user experience I will get from d SD720g on the note 9s bud? .
Am I paying extra for brand logo when the engine is inferior to the SD720g on the note9s?

Lol, other than gaming experience, which other experience are u talking about?

Nice

RealEzee:
bro there is noting like slightly better here , it's way better


Tell me something bud, will it be wise for me to pay the cost of A51 over a note9s for this kind of chipset :
"currently i have A50s and trust me
Exynos 9611 (based on century old A73
and A53 and GPU is mali G72 MP3 which
is 3 year old ) is very bad as compare to
snapdragon 730G or 720G, this exynos
proceesor has inconsistent performance,
overheat, bad gaming experience
especailly graphic intensive games like
COD and PUBG have ton of frame drops.
In long term usuage i think a year or so,
this going to mess even basic task."-

there is more to a phone than Amoled screen bud

I can't pay for brand logo when I can a better spec phone for less the price na, we should even b comparing A51 to note9s or note 9 pro, we should bring a71 to the table rather,that's fair.

Thats the issue, the only reason to choose xiaomi over samsung is money .

person wey get money no go think twice before choosing samsung over any chinko

RealEzee:
Bud do you dispute the SD720g on d note9s is better than the exynos 9611 on the a51 after reading that review?

My point has always been about performance and whatever game u think d exynos 9611 on A51 can play the SD720g on d note9s does it far better bud , yet cost less than the A51, so what's the fuzz about the A51 then in performance na .
Whatever game u can play on d A51,d note 9s will do it way better but u can't do it better than d SD720g on d note9s.

Speaking of the the exynos 9611 :
"currently i have A50s and trust me
Exynos 9611 (based on century old A73
and A53 and GPU is mali G72 MP3 which

Yet the A51 cost more than the note9s and the note9s is doing better, so what really will I be paying for in buying the A51 with exynos 9611 as against the SD720g on the note9s, na d Samsung logo I go chop?

There is more to a phone than just slightly better chipset.....

and am still waiting for the list of games that will fail to run on A51

iamNegro:
Most games that are popular will pretty much play on both phones, but the quality will be way different. Besides, the rn 9s has way more strengths of which is quality build, battery, GCam that sets both cameras miles apart, tweaking, better speaker, HDR 10 for way smoother experience for videos.

Dont mention camera as a pros of RN9s over the A51.

I mean dont

Wetin dey do this one?

Aunty buy earpiece na?

iamNegro:
There is a degree to performance reduction and the Exynos is very much guilty of that, judging from experiences overtime, reviewers, even Samsung themselves has acknowledged that there is work to do with respect to their home chipset. If you were current, you would have noticed the campaign for cancellation of Exynos chipset by Samsung fans. Not everybody is a heavy user, still, the point that both chipsets are not mate.

Both chipsets have their own pros and cons

RealEzee:
slightly? did you say slightly lol? Joke of the day, that SD720g will send the exynos 9611 to the cleaners hands down bud, hence performance of d note9s is way better than the A51 bud, I'll drop a review here about the SD720g compared to the exynos 9611 :

The Snapdragon 720G comes with Adreno
618, which can handle any game we throw
at it. Maybe there will some frame drops
while playing AAA title games but still it
will be playable most of the times.
However, much like the CPU architecture,
even with the GPU Samsung went cheap
and used the Mali G72 MP3 GPU which is
already a few years old now. The Exynos
9611 will just simply struggle to maintain
a decent graphic performance, especially
considering how graphic demanding the
latest mobile games are.

In the AI department, we see Qualcomm’s
5th Gen AI engine for the Snapdragon
720G. It comes with Hexagon 692 DSP,
Hexagon Tensor Accelerators, Vector
Extensions, and Accelerators. In
comparison, we see a digital signal
processor and a neural network engine in
the Exynos 9611. As expected from an
older processor, the 9611 just can’t come
close to the number TOPs the Snapdragon
720G can perform.

In Geekbench, the Qualcomm Snapdragon
720G scores a single-core score of 571
points and a multi-core score of 1676. On
the other hand, the Exynos 9611 scores a
single-core score of 305 points and a
multi-core score of 1177 points. So,
Qualcomm’s 720G is the clear winner in
terms of performance.

Do you think it's slightly better or way better bud ?
Don't forget the price of the note9s Is less yet its d benz here while d A51 is d Azeera here .

Your money ur choice tho

List the games that are playable on RN9s but unplayable on the Samsung G A51

iamNegro:
Not slightly. Many games will run comfortably but stutter on high quality settings like pugb, codm,etc. One CPU can run games and heavy apps for longer hours than the other. This should not even be a comparison. Even long term, the fall in Exynos performance is not satisfactory. CPU also accounts for device throttling and battery longevity.

Oga every chipset falls in performance with time, not just Exynos...

Besides not everyone is a heavy gamer, mind u its not even as if the exynos 9611 isnt strong enough to run whatever game u are talking about..

search on youtube and watch gaming comparisons on both chipset before condemning the other

RealEzee:
Haba bud I no exaggerate na , u Sha agree the SD720g is better than d Exynos 9611 abi? Plus d SD 720g will run games or heavy usage better than d Exynos 9611 true or false?
At the end with its performance been better it cost less than the A51 abi?

SLIGHTLY?
Yes.

And nothing more!!

pabllov53:
i tire for am bro.. He was losing and ran to Samsung screen issues. How many of latest Samsung fones screens dor dey damaged lately? They did good improvement in their screens lately and that has made me to start believing that not all gorilla glass are the same sef just as not all 12mp cameras are the same

Exactly my guy, Specs on paper is different from specs in reality, thats what some people dont know ... No be all high ratings worth am..

Thats why 12mp camera on samsung galaxy s8 is far better than the so called 48mp on the redmi note 8 pro and the likes

RealEzee:
A phone is way more than just processor, mind u we are talking phones not car....
-a phone's core is its processor, like a car's core is it engine, true or false?
In that vein, a benz C300 packs a better engine than an Hyundai Azeera which packs sweet design, that's doesn't mean the C300 no fine Sha, durability wise the C300 is better than the Azeera as we look at build quality , hence the note 9s performance by virtue of its engine outperforms the A51 and the protection on the note9s is better than the A51,so hence mulla for hand isn't the enough reason but price and specs been offered by both d note 9s n A51,which is more compelling factor Sha.

will u buy a Hyundai Azeera for d price of a C300? Sure u won't but will rather choose d C300 over d Azeera even if da Azeera cost more, so is the note 9s is to d A51, note9s is better,d note9s is the benz here as opposed to the A51 and m31.

That's the analogy I use in comparing both models using cars.

Like you said tho, everyone still their own opinion and what they're looking for in a phone,thats word.

Lol. the way u are exaggerating the RN9s chipset is as if exynos 9611 is just like MTK Helio p22.

Oya tell me, which game will run on RN9s that will not run on A51?

i dey wait

RealEzee:
I already gave my reasons for choosing the rn9s above d A51 in my first comment bud, in case you missed it, I'll paste it for you for recap :


Personally I'll go for the note 9s,I'm particular about performance cos that will prove how the phone will respond to task from mid to heavy usage, also gives room for upgrade on existing features thru future updates from the company or personal tweaks, that SD 720g will blow the chipset on m31 and A51 away.
Can't compare a corolla on v4 engine to a benz on a v8 engine,even if you put 8 tyres on it, engine performance will always tell who's better on the long.
Screen display is where the Samsung takes it, for me it's not a deal breaker at all, will pick a benz over a Hyundai .
When doing personal tweaks I go fit upgrade the features on the note 9s but will be limited on the A51 n m31 cos of its chipset(engine).
The trade offs or corners cut on the note 9s is ok by me, they are not some specular feature I will be missing e.g amoled panel.
The note 9s ticks the box for me.

Addition: build quality still goes the note 9s over both the m31 and A51.
Any parts I need to be repaired can be sourced online or from the guys even here on nairaland so that's no deal breaker for me bud.
Camera wise the A51 is slightly better, nonetheless the note9s pull quality images and if I employ gcam because of its compatability it blazes on mehn, so what the point spending more on the A51 for me tho , so bud no biggies for me, will pick the note 9s over the A51 over and over, the real competition is the a71.

Plus it's priced lesser than the A51 yet from my comparison d note 9s ticks the box for me, if I'm spending A51 price tag I won't pick d A51 but something better like d note 9 pro or poco x2.


"The Only win for RN9s is just Processor and Battery of which the difference is just slight and A51 will run any app or game that RN9s will run effortlessly..
"-your statement, at the the note9s blazes the A51, 1kmah ba3 difference is not slightly a difference tho, a faster charging speed of 3w is not slightly, a chipset scoring better scores isn't slightly bud, check it well, this aspect are not slightly, cos these aspects the note 9s blazes the A51.

Screen
-Amoled vs ips, like I said screens it's a deal breaker for me, plus d note 9s comes with a better screen build of corning gorilla glass 5 as opposed d A51, so I'm assured better protection than the A51 at the end, yet note9s cost less right?

Camera
- already addressed
Beauty/Design
-yep A51 is better looking than the note 9s, not my priority.

Less Weight-is not as if the note 9s weighs like a bag of cement in my hands mehn, plus d better build quality n larger ba3 is it culprit, and yeah I'd have that than beauty and fragile like the A51, yeah note9s cost less.

Longer Updates
-d note 9s also get updates too.

Better UI
-oneUi is better, less blaotware, I can still take out d blaotware on d note9s n besides I can twerk d kind of UI I want to use, thanks to it been an android right.

Availability of spare parts
-already addressed.

Better and more trusted brand
-Xiaomi is also a trusted brand, if not it won't be having d positive buzz its having around the world also.

At the end, it cost less yet, engine over beauty, note 9s over A51.

A phone is way more than just processor, mind u we are talking phones not car....

And i saw u mentioning Benz and Hyundai.. where as my guy, in reality samsung is the benz..

The only reason to choose RN9s over A51 is when there isnt enough mulla at hand (Lower Budget)....

Las Las everyone is entitled to his own opinion and everyone has his/her own scale of preference when it comes to phones specs/abilities..

I cant choose JUST slightly better chipset over the remaining specs (Never).

Therefore, i will choose A51 over RN9s anyday anytime 7days a week thrice on saturday, lol.

For this country

if religion no seperate us, region go seperate us, if region no seperate us, tribe go seperate us, if tribe no seperate us dominaton go seperate us too??

RealEzee:
huh wat did u just say? Snapdragon wat? Snapdragon na screen? Screen and processor are different na, if u have amoled and poor processor that's doesn't make sense either man, smh .

The RN9s has better processor doesnt make the processor in A51 any way poor..

Infact the difference is just slight, and thats the only thing thats better in RN9s, alongside battery which is also slight..

In every other aspects, A51 beats the RN9s hands down!!

•Screen
•Camera
•Beauty/Design
•Less Weight
•Longer Updates
•Better UI
•Availability of spare parts ( Cant come and be ordering for spare parts online and having to wait for months before arival)
•Better and more trusted brand
•Better resale/ Market Value incase u decide to part ways with it.
•Less bloatwares.
•Better security patch ( Heard recently how chinese companies are selling phones with inbuilt malwares to steal from the users)

And lots more...

The Only win for RN9s is just Processor and Battery of which the difference is just slight and A51 will run any app or game that RN9s will run effortlessly..

I bet if u are given both phones to choose one u will also choose the samsung....

some people are just blinded by FANBOISM

lainwords098:
So the Engineer lied

Not saying so..
But its possible

lainwords098:
1st the device is mine and started rebooting it'self while I was using it. So the memory was 64gig.
2nd the device was wiped when I collected it and I still had to use my apple ID to unlock it.

Uhm, never heard of a thing like this.

probably changed the memory chip

lainwords098:
So I got this iphone 6s plus that was stuck in boot loop.. I took it to an engineer and he tried flashing it but was unable to..

So he recommended another engineer which said it was a power IC Issue. That it would cost 15k.

But after repair my phones memory changed From 64gb to 16gb and the engineer is insisting that it was the fault that changed the memory


Please is this possible? Or have been SCAMMED.

its either the engineer changed the panel, or the person that sold it to u in bootloop lied about the memory capacity.

Nothing like reduction in memory becos of fault

Whateva u do, pls avoid aimtoget

Although not everyone in prison is a criminal, but from his past.. We can simply say he landed himself there..

I once learn barbing from a guy who is also terrible like this, i remember how he once stole a customer's nokia phone and the customer was sure it was stolen in the shop...

And the worst thing was that it was only 3 of us present when the phone was stolen. Me, him and the customer and the customer was even looking at me somehow being that i am the apprentice there...He later begged the customer to come back next day as the customer no gree and the guy no wan admit am to the customer say na im carry am..


Las las i left there and he is now associating with the street touts who smoke and steal for living..


Mind u i once sat this guy down and adviced him like my younger brother even though he is older than i am..


Oh i forgot, he stole my younger brother's phone the 1st day he came to our house... But somehow i manage to recover it using strategic ways..


May we give birth to children with better future..
